Updating Access Queries using SQL?

Because, this is just part of my query, if I use top 1, then, I can't get other entries required by some other conditions.

Use the Top 1, you can use the UNION statement to make multiple selects like this to match all of your criteria:

SELECT a, b, c, d FROM table_one WHERE a = 5

UNION 

SELECT a, b, c, e FROM table_one WHERE a = 6

UNION

SELECT a, b, c, f FROM table_one WHERE a = 7

UNION 

SELECT a, b, c, g FROM table_one WHERE a = 8

I may need to be able to create and update Access 2000 Queries using SQL commands. Is that even possible? I'm using ADO.NET if that, for some reason I've missed, makes life easier.

Well... because I don't know how to do it and thus I have to accept the unlikely possibility that it just can't be done.

So, Mazy, do you happen to know how to do it? Poke tongue | ;-P

When you use ADO.NET,you use sqlCommand class for SQLServer database,now here for Access database you have to use OleDbCommand class.

Blush | :O

Ooops! That's not what I meant. I get OleDbCommand, although I'm using OdbcCommand.

I mean that I want to create an actual Access Query inside the Access database. Some quite complicated things that I'm going to have to do repeatedly so I don't want the SQL to be in my code, where one bug means fixing it in ten places. I want to get the Query into the database and read that. But it'll be a live database, so downloading it, updating it and then uploading it again will mean shutting the web site down.

I will have a direct SQL page that only I can get at, so it would be really convenient if I can just say "Add Query..." in the same way I can add a table.

The alternative is getting the guy who owns the server to update it (which is not beyond the realms of possibility, but it is a pain).

Anyone any experience of outputting a nested set model (to an XML
structure using Microsoft SQL Server? Would like to read in as a stream using ExecuteXmlReader.

For details on Nested Set Model, see the chapter in JOE CELKO'S SQL FOR SMARTIES (Morgan-Kaufmann, 1999, second edition)

> 'Albert' 1 12
> 'Bert' 2 3
> 'Chuck' 4 11
> 'Donna' 5 6
> 'Eddie' 7 8
> 'Fred' 9 10

Example XML output:

<root>
<node emp="Albert">
<node emp="Bert"/>
<node emp="Chuck">
<node emp="Donna"/>
<node emp="Eddie"/>
<node emp="Fred"/>
</node>
</node>
</root>

This works, but isnt an XML stream:

SELECT xml1.xmltext
FROM
(SELECT lft, xmltext = '<node emp="' + emp + '">' FROM Personnel
UNION ALL SELECT rgt, xmltext = '</node>' FROM Personnel) AS xml1
ORDER BY xml1.lft

Hi,
I am using the following code to read a exel file from a AS.NET page , but its not working.
Pls help...

string strConn;
strConn = "Provider=Microsoft.Jet.OLEDB.4.0;" +
"Data Source=D:\\Documents\\EServer\\ProjectCodes.xls;"
+"Extended Properties=Excel 8.0;";

//You must use the $ after the object you reference in the spreadsheet
OleDbDataAdapter myCommand = new OleDbDataAdapter("SELECT * FROM [Sheet1$]", strConn);

DataSet myDataSet = new DataSet();
myCommand.Fill(myDataSet, "ProjectCodes");// This line is giving the error !

DataGrid1.DataSource = myDataSet.Tables"ProjectCodes"].DefaultView;

DataGrid1.DataBind();

What is the error message? Also, you have an extra bracket in the second to last line (DataGrid1.DataSource). Is that a problem?

I Use the following from VC++, I hope that will be the same:

strConnection = _T("Driver={Microsoft Excel Driver (*.xls)};DriverId=790;"
		"Dbq=C:\\DatabasePath\\DBSpreadSheet.xls;DefaultDir=c:\\databasepath;");

If you prefer to use Ole DB you connection srting is correct...
Where you recibe an error?
